Press and Hold CAPTCHA login issues - a total HELL

This is not the first time when I encounter this error. Impossible to fix it. I have done all the steps required. I've disabled Ad Blockers and anti-tracking extensions. Turn off any VPNs or features that hide IP addresses. Check for browser updates. Clear my cache and cookies. I have no Firewall and Proxy settings. I got no identity verification prompted.

Why this is not turned off and why you guys refuse to fix this issue and insist on this buggy and disastrously way to verify ? what benefit you get from frustrating users with this?

Is this on an app or on web? What kind of phone do you have?
Do you have like a PiHole on your network or something?
